The Strange Affair of the Missing Data...
Following a glow display failure I found that I was receiving zero values for consumption data via the API. This was unexpected.
Resolution
- I plugged my original SMETS2 display back in and surprisingly I was now able to retrieve readings data via the Glow API again
- I was also able to retrieve the missing historic data by running an API query for the relevant time period – the API now appeared to return meaningful data
This is a little odd..
- Is there a requirement for a SMETS display to be plugged in for the DCC to receive data
- If so, how was I able to retrieve historic data for the period when a display was not connected?
Anyone have any thoughts?
It could have been coincidence of course...
Anyway , now all ok - just waiting for a replacement display to arrive so that I can receive near real time data via Local MQTT again.

Hmm. API returning null data again (since 2022-10-18T13:30:00+00:00...).
Something very odd going on..
Maybe something to do with the energy supplier pushing the new tariff out to my IHD.
Time to contact support....
